Scottish Power
Logged into my SP Account yesterday and noticed that they are advertising a Fixed Priced 2017 deal, great I thought??
Did the usual call them up and hang on forever and gave up.
Decided to ring them again and go for the request a call back option and they rang back 2 1/2 hours later only to be told it is a Dual Fuel offer not a Single Fuel Offer (I am all Electric).
Now, as hard as I try I cannot find that statement on any of the pages linked to this offer, I find this a tad misleading??

its true I,m afraid, I,m currently on Scottish power, (in process of moving) and looked at this tariff, (I,m all electric aswell) in the end I went for npower 2017 deal, few months more, and it worked out cheaper than SP 2017 for me anyway

Thanks for you reply Nitty Gritty,
Just spoken to Uswitch and they thought that SP's 2017 advert was a tad misleading to.
Now switched to EDF with a deal that is only £1 a month more than we already pay, fixed until March 2015.
